Description
Summary:If congress wants alternative automobile technologies, it must strengthen, not weaken, Title II of the Clean Air Act. Emission control systems should be required to remain effective throughout the vehicle's 100,000 MI useful life. Recall and warranty provisions should be strengthened. The theoretical framework of early air pollution control law and of the Clean Air Act amendments of 1970 and reasons for the failure of automobile emissions control regulations are discussed.
